e697a52359 Adding a function to stdlib to set the min stack size, for programs
that absolutely will not succeed with a large default stack. This
should be removed once we have stack grown working.

Also updated word-count to succeed under the new test framework.

92e9382193 Remove task::worker
It was too unsafe to live. It already apeared to be causing problems with
eholk's incoming task changes, so I'm killing it now before it can spread.

067cb6d537 Run test process from a dedicated task
This avoids a race wherein test tasks could run processes that stole the
environment of other tasks's processes.

73fed01108 Add task::worker. Spawns a task and returns a channel to it
It takes a lot of boilerplate to create a task and establish a way to talk to
it. This function simplifies that, allowing you to write something like
'worker(f).chan <| start'. Implementation is very unsafe and only works for a
few types of channels, but something like this is very useful.

8878b128ba More work on word-count.
Updated the MapReduce protocol so that it's correct more often. It's
still not perfect, but the bugs repro less often now.

Also found a race condition in channel sending. The problem is that
send and receive both need to refer to the _unread field in
circular_buffer. For now I just grabbed the port lock to send. We can
probably get around this by using atomics instead.

ced8393f20 Modify task::join to indicate how the task terminated
This involves sticking yet another field into the task structure

01a52d728c Add an unsupervise builtin and function to std::task
Calling task::unsupervise de-parents the current task, with the result
that failures do not propogate up the task tree.

d1857d30fc This is the mega-ucontext commit. It replaces the task switching mechanism with a new one inspired by ucontext. It works under Linux, OS X and Windows, and is Valgrind clean on Linux and OS X (provided the runtime is built with gcc).
This commit also moves yield and join to the standard library, as requested in #42. Join is currently a no-op though.
